Barbados Immigration Department
Applies the ruleThe department that applies the Immigration Act: it controls entry and departure at the ports and processes applications for citizenship, permanent residence, immigrant status, work permits and entry visas. Its pages set out the documents it actually asks for under each statutory head, name the section each application is made under, and state the fees it charges. It also hosts the prescribed forms.
The body that applies the rule and decides applications. It publishes what it requires, which is authoritative about its own practice but is not the text of the law.

It states practice, not law, and its fees are not the fees the Immigration (Forms and Fees) Regulations prescribe - it publishes $300 on application where the Regulations say $200, and $1,200 or $1,500 on the grant where the Regulations say $800. It must not be cited for what an instrument requires, for the length of any statutory period, or for the entry visa fee in United States dollars, which no instrument we found carries. Its visa guidance points to a list published by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs rather than carrying one.
